UniPolar Neuron Cells
Nociceptors are the neurons in the skin that are responsible for detecting pain. They are specialized sensory receptors that respond to potentially damaging stimuli by sending signals to the brain, alerting the body to the presence of tissue-damaging stimuli like heat, pressure, or chemicals.
Burns are classified into three categories based on their severity: First-degree burns: These affect only the outer layer of skin and are characterized by redness and minor pain. Second-degree burns: These extend into the second layer of skin and are marked by blisters, pain, and redness. Third-degree burns: These are the most severe and damage all layers of the skin, potentially reaching deeper tissues and resulting in white or charred skin.
Some examples of specialized cells in cnidarians include cnidocytes (stinging cells) used for defense and capturing prey, sensory cells for detecting movement and light, and muscle cells for movement and contraction. Additionally, some cnidarians have specialized cells that secrete mucus or digestive enzymes for feeding.
The scientific name for skin cancer is melanoma.
The scientific name for skin tissue is "cutaneous tissue" or "integumentary tissue."
The phylum name Echinodermata means "spiny skin," derived from the Greek words "echinos" (spiny) and "derma" (skin). This name refers to the presence of spiny, calcareous skin covering the bodies of echinoderms, including sea stars, sea urchins, and sand dollars.

They are found in many tissues in the body, mainly in the skin. They are responsible for pain reception and are sometimes referred to as nociceptors.
The cells responsible for our sense of smell are called neurons, specifically olfactory receptor neurons. They are linked directly to the brain, and respond to different chemical signals to generate what we then perceive as smells and odors.
somatosensory cortex, which is located in the parietal lobe of the cerebrum. This area is responsible for processing and interpreting sensory information from the skin, such as touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.
The neurons in the brain and else where do not normally regenerate. Skin cells do regenerate.
Yes it is! And Melanin is responsible for the skin of dark-skinned people.
